 Just what I was looking for November 23, 2008
A. Michael (Greenfield, MA USA)
I recently moved to a new house where the only high-speed internet available is DSL. I work from home, so high-speed internet is a must-have. Everything was fine with the Verizon supplied DSL modem except that every time I went to our Sharepoint site ... something I am required to do often for work ... the entire modem would crash thereby cutting off the internet for the entire householdtaking our VoIP phone down with it which is also a must-have for work and pretty much going all day long between me and my husband. Anyway, long story short, Verizon was (of course) no help at all, but my work help desk suggested I try getting a new modem. Low and behold, with this modem, I cruise around Sharepoint with no issues. I don't really notice any other difference, but the Sharepoint difference alone is huge and well worth the cost. Setup had a bump or two to get it to work with our relatively complicated network, but if your home network is normal, then this should be plug and play.

I'm paying for 1.5 M service from Centurytel. With my previous modem, the best I would get is 800-900 K. With my new Actiontec I'm getting over 1.4 M!! Setup was quick and easy too.
Great Modem if used with a good ISP May 10, 2008

I bought the Qwest-branded version of this modem as part of a DSL package. Used it continuously for over a year and a half. Unfortunately Qwest's infrastructure in our neighborhood is getting old and our house is quite far from the central office so the signal started getting too weak. Even our voice service was sub standard for a while. We eventually switched service providers but it wasn't because of the modem. the Actiontec GT701 kept on working through thick and thin.
Used it with a wireless router connected. There are lots of configuration options so it can be a little intimidating if you're not familiar with networking.

This is the only modem I would recommend & found that Amazon is by far the best place to purchase same.

I replaced the DSL modem I received from Speakeasy with this model. My original modem died every time I tried to use bittorrent, and eventually failed completely. This modem has been working continuously for the last month. One of my friends who was in a similar situation bought this same model, which has been working for him for about a year. I am running this modem bridged in front of a Linksys WRT54GL.
The product description does not go into depth about the modem itself, but I received the Actiontec model GT701, and the plastic casing was grey. I'm not sure if there is also a black one, but I don't spend too much time looking at my DSL modem anyway. One notable feature is the power switch on the back. If you do end up having to power cycle the modem, you don't have to unplug the power and then try to reach around trying to plug it back in behind your desk.
